"Whatever happened to chivalry? Does it only exist in 80's movies? I want John Cusack holding a boombox outside my window. I wanna ride off on a lawnmower with Patrick Dempsey. I want Jake from Sixteen Candles waiting outside the church for me. I want Judd Nelson thrusting his fist into the air because he knows he got me.

I&#039;ll watch you fall, laugh, mock you, wouldn&#039;t help for sure, until you get the resolution...Yeah, the resolution, to get up by yourself, without relying on two-faced unfaithful beings...Because when I stare into your eyes, I might just fall in love.
